tennessee is mine
Some girls keep a class ring
Some girls take an SEC t-shirt
Some girls need a strong drink
I need a little more to make this work
'Cause you know what it'd do to me
If we were in the same city
Let's lay the ground rules out
And settle all this right now
You can hang on to my hometown
Take the Virginia Beach sky
All the St. Augustine sunsets
Take them Talladega Nights
But somewhere I gotta be selfish
I gotta draw the line
So turn around at the welcome sign, babe
'Cause Tennessee is mine
Don't come through for the whiskey
Don't come back for the Broadway neon lights
I don't care if you miss me
Long as it's from your side of the state line
You can hang on to my hometown
Take the Virginia Beach sky
All the St. Augustine sunsets
Take them Talladega Nights
But somewhere I gotta be selfish
I gotta draw the line
So turn around at the welcome sign, babe
'Cause Tennessee is mine, oh
Take the California sun and
Take all those Georgia pines
All I'm asking for is one
You've got all the other forty-nine
You can hang on to my hometown
Take the Virginia Beach sky
All the St. Augustine sunsets
Take them Talladega Nights
But somewhere I gotta be selfish
I gotta draw the line
So turn around at the welcome sign, babe
'Cause Tennessee is mine
Turn around at the welcome sign, babe
'Cause Tennessee is mine
